I thought today would be an easier mission. No props. No preparation. Just pay an honest compliment to five people.

Easy, right?

Wrong.

My kids are taking this challenge super serious. They wanted to pay compliments to people that they didn't know well or at all. I expected a simple list of the five people that they approached. Instead, we spent the majority of our evening discussing their struggle with approaching kids they didn't know well.

Ultimately, they figured out it wasn't as hard as it sounded to them at first. I'm thrilled with this wonderful unintended consequence.
